thank you everyone - I'm afraid mos of the brands linked in previous threads are currently out of srock :( I'm gong to try the Oxbow Joint support tablets ( bet he doesn't eat them :D ). So .. if anyone else has any recommendations , please let me know :)

All the best!

...back on the meds. After 2 more days, he was holding steady, not better not worse. That's when we got him the glucosamine via the oxbow joint support tablets. All of a sudden he was sucking down the critical care and trying to run away with the syringe, pee was clear, no more squeaking. I know...

It makes it gather more but it is still better than nothing if that is all you get from your vet.

...it to them, other than as a treat and they enjoy foraging for it. They do get 1 oxbow vitamin C treat day, and Sugar gets an oxbow joint support for the glucosamine...but I also have cystease capsules and liquid vitamin C. Would the latter be better for C and glucosamine daily? The C...

...vet. George went onto 1.5mg/ml metacam twice a day but we then inherited a glucosamine supplement from a friend (half a bag of oxbow joint support biscuits) and I tried them not really expecting much. But they worked well for George at that age and that stage. It took me a full month to be...

Thank you so much! Have you seen improvement since your boar has been on these?

...didn’t know he could have a course every 3 months. My vet said he may have to have them every 3 months until his flare has settled. Also I have ordered him some oxbow joint support. Just to see if this helps him in between as well as metacam and cystophan. My vet is also going to do a urine...

...and hearing that squeaking is such a bummer. She's also turning 5 and is on two meds for life to prevent stones. If you have Oxbow joint support treats in your area, you might want to try them. Not only for the older pig's joints, but the glucosamine in them protects the bladder from...

...has it but not so bad (the vet could feel his 'creaky' knees!) and a combination of daily metacam and a glucosamine supplement (oxbow joint support) has set him right. Other posters have had piggies with varying degrees of immobility, from 'bunny-hopping' back legs to literally dragging...

...I’m clipping his nails and he does have good clean movements there with no heat or swelling. I have been interested in trying the Oxbow joint support ‘treats’ to see if that could help him so thank you for sharing your experience with them! I usually give them the vitamin C ones which both...

We found glucosamine worked absolute wonders for arthritic old Clover, I'm always very sceptical about the value of dietary supplements myself but head local vet Dr Clare suggested it and within a week she could bend and straighten her old broken leg injury that we thought was permanentky fused...

Oh I'm sorry I should have been more specific - we use Oxbow joint support for guinea pigs. Look on Amazon. They're not cheap though. These are like a little biscuit-y thing that they can crunch. I use these because George also has arthritis. They do a 'urinary support' version in a white and...

...too. I was just reading a post from 2017 about IC and cystease. Maybe going to do 1/2 capsule twice today, and still give her oxbow joint support treat and that will double up the glucosamine. We also put her on an “exercise program” so the sludge jiggles around and doesnt clump together...

I do give the joint support treats daily. During flares I add the cystease to increase the dose for a few days. This is only the second time this piggie has had blood/pain and we are increasing the daily glucosamine and she also gets .25ml of dog meloxicam for a few days when symptoms are...

I had a look at the glucosamine amount in the oxbow joint support lozenges George is enjoying (90) and in their urinary support version (45) and I give my chunky girl 1/2 an arthritis lozenge every day now. She had no serious issues but was passing very gritty pee and I noticed the other girl...

Thank you! She has now been on Cystease for a couple days. Within the first 12 hours of being put on it, I noticed a decrease in the amount of blood in her urine. Today is the third day of Feliway Cystease and I haven't found any blood in her urine (knock on wood). I have been giving her 1/2 a...

...0.3ml ish of 1.5 mg/ml twice a day (roughly because the syringe is actually in different units). But a month ago I started him on oxbow joint support lozenges at 1 a day and he has improved no end! He moves about much more freely now and doesn't nibble at his achy joints any more (we used to...

Nancy unfortunately refuses to eat the oxbow yellow ones. I would like her to try antibiotics, I asked last week. But I will ask again, as she is getting worse rather than better so maybe the vet will be more inclined to try now. I'm actually quite worried about her. Interesting to hear you...

Please don't overdo the vitamin C additive. The vast majority of scurvy cases we see on here are ironically not from piggies with malnutrition issues but from guinea pigs with too much vitamin C in their diet. Their bodies adapt to the high daily levels but as soon as that level drops for some...
